Abstract (en)
[origin: US2022108783A1] A surgical hub may obtain a hub connectivity mode based on a hub connectivity control parameter. For example, the hub connectivity mode may be selected from multiple connectivity modes that may be preconfigured, dynamically updated, semi-dynamically updated, periodically updated, or preset. The hub connectivity modes may control inter-device connectivity within a network associated with a hospital, and/or communication with an external network associated with a different hospital. The surgical hub may determine whether to provide instructional information to at least one smart surgical instrument based on the hub connectivity mode. On a condition that the hub connectivity mode does not support provisioning instructional information to surgical devices, provisioning instructional information to surgical devices may be disabled. On a condition that the hub connectivity mode supports provisioning instructional information to surgical devices, the surgical hub may determine to obtain and provide instructional information to surgical devices.
